My Students

My kindergarten students LOVE school! Their first year of school is full of excitement! Everything is new to them, and their joy for learning is contagious! We love learning and having fun at the same time!

These sweet 5- and 6-year-olds appreciate every donation to our classroom no matter how great or small.

My students come to school from a wide variety of backgrounds, and it is my goal to engage every student and meet individual needs. Thank you so much for your wonderful gift to these precious kindergarten kiddos!

My Project

These weighted stuffed animals and special seats will be so beneficial to my students. The animals will not only provide comfort when needed in the classroom, but the weight of the pet will also provide students with therapeutic benefits. These animals have been shown to help many kids calm down and relax as needed throughout the day.

Every student learns differently, and these items will help meet the many needs of our class.

The special seats will allow students to be able to "wiggle"-helping them stay engaged and attentive while on their carpet spots or in their chairs. Having a wide variety of student "tools" will allow them to be able to meet their own needs on a daily basis.
